Tatted Lace Plans and Progress

I keep my mistakes with tatting and then try to use them. This mistake is forming an idea for a journal cover or purse or something along with this brooch. Got to sleep on it more.

I love the old tatted lace books and in some of them they use ric rac and trimmings along with tatting I found this trim on ebay and am excited to recreate one of these patterns for fun. More to sleep on to figure out which pattern

Here in Tennessee we have mild winters and the temperature go up to 70 for a week or two, and look what I foundAsparagus. I got to eat him or cover him up in a while, because there will be more cold weather, I am sure of it.

I love your idea of that beautiful piece of lace with that brooch!! :)Neat looking trim! :)I love your Thistle Doily!!!!! :)Looks like you are off to a great start on the new Spring Doily too!!! :)We up here in Michigan have had an awful mild winter and it's been near the 60's here, but we are expecting snow Saturday.

I love your rose and thistle doily looking very prettyI like your idea for the odd piece of tatting, and it will be interesting see if you can work out the lace, which I don't think is tatting but bobbin lace.We are in the throws of storm Doris and she's given the UK a big kick today.
